A simple python module to make it easy to batch convert a binary DICOM file, which is usually an output from an MRI scan to a PNG image.
The MRI scanning facilities hand you a CD containing your MRI scans. This CD will typically not contain any image files that can be opened up by your default image viewing program. The CD contains a list of DICOM files, which can only be viewed by the included viewer, which is mostly only supported on a Windows machine.
This module should help you convert all the DICOM based scans to PNG files.
The software shows you additional meta data about the patient and the positioning of the scan on top the scanned image. This will not display that information on the PNG file.
